its not pushing the sprocket, its just putting the tension side on the bottom instead of the top. still pulling.

Now back on Topic!

My brother lives in one of the 100 acre house-farms down in Newnan, where every house looks the same and everyone tries to impress one another with how much better they are than everyone else.

I've been trying desperately for the past year to get him a bike, but his wife won't let him. His loss I guess.

i just hope he has the power to deny his wife something...

Great build. I'm in the process of building a drift trike similar.

What length is your axle? Is it 1"?

What are the wheels and tires? That is my hesitation now, what size to order that will fit the 10" PVC sleeve?

Thank you for any tips, I can learn from what you have already done.

I did post the tire info in my build off thread !

the farmer seat i found on ebay for $14 + $13 shipping

all done. with no pvc slicks on, the thing flys, in a straight line that is. with pvc on takes a little getting used to but loads of fun
